Cinnamon is the standard spice for topping a crumb coffee cake. This coffee cake keeps the crumb topping and spices it up a little more by using some of the same flavors that are found in chai, including cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and allspice. These spices really help to make the coffee cake memorable - and they also make you want to come back for a second slice.

I found this recipe somewhere on the internet, and it was so much more simple than any other pizza dough recipe that used yeast. It's delicious and fluffy, and sometimes I like to add minced garlic - yum.
